in the name of freedom

August 25th, 2008

Mccain’s face is severely disfigured because he chose not to abandon his squadron when given the opportunity as a POW in Vietnam. As a result they severely beat him so badly that he laid there with too many broken facial and body bones to even recount the injuries. You can see the evidence now in his face and in his walking. His mantra ”My country first then me”, unlike the wannabe black Panther Barrack Obama had aspirations of becoming, we must decide who is best for our country. The man who will make sure our FREEDOM isn’t in question (McCain) or the man who told both Germany and France (hey, they hate each other WWII ) he admires their political and social systems better than America’s. Can you say socialism in America=loss of freedom. Look around people we are already starting to lose it. Stop making decisions based on opinion and start looking at facts. I DO NOT ENDORSE ANYONE WHO WILL STAND IN THE WAY OF MY FREEDOM BUT I DO ENDORSE THOSE WHO ARE WILLING TO FIGHT FOR IT. One of them will win and we will see a change. Are you willing to gamble on what kind of change?  peace to all/d

Sturgis or bust

July 31st, 2008

Seems like things are getting pretty tough out there for a lot of folks and my shop has been like a morgue(a place in which bodies are kept, pending identification or burial. my shop is pending burial).  I am going to Sturgis with an opened mind; however, this seems to be the beginning of the end. My security is in Jesus and this is why right now when I look down I only see one pair of foot prints, because he is carrying me to safer ground and I can’t wait to see what “rest in Him” will bring to light. It already as revealed how far away from the truth our country has traveled as well as warnings as to what is to come. Can anyone say, one world religion, one world economy and socialism in America? Obama can! Sounds like the END TIMES for people like me. Oh did I say sorry if I offended? I did’nt think so!  peace/d

Read all about it… in the Sunday paper

July 9th, 2008

I am back and working on the photos of the S&S bike. I raised a lot of controversy and made the front page of the LaCrosse tribune sunday edition. Go to “links” section of my website and check it out. After reading the article scroll down to watch the video. I had a blast and will always remember this rare occurrence that will never happen again. peace /dI I am back and working on the photos of the S&S bike.

the Beast, not the beauty

July 2nd, 2008

This is the name of the S&S 50th anniversary bike that I built. I did not win an accolade but I was heard and appreciated by those who did “GET” the message of the bike, which was this…”It only takes one”…one american at a time to start speaking up against the evil, the immoral and the wrong doers of our great free country and get our country back before its too late. I was a child in the 60’s and 70’s and experienced a country that has sadly departed along with the sense of unity, as americans, with one another. Everyone thinks they have the answer, but if we don’t start to care about each other individually, in spite of politics, it will be impossible to remain united and my fear is that this will be the beginning of the end of the face of the nation I grew up loving, proudly saying the “Pledge of allegiance” and respecting my country’s flag. I love my country and without hesitation chose this conviction as the theme of my S&S 50th anniversary bike. As soon as the pictures of the bike are available I will be posting them on my site. God bless America and may he bless you and your families. with best regards to all  peace to you /d

TAKING IT TO THE STREETS

June 17th, 2008

WOW! What a first ride, the auto clutch stuck and I was off to the races, at night and into a busy street. THANK YOU GOD! My bad! All that was needed was a quick adjustment and all is well, except for one thing it is now 12 midnight and the scheduled pick-up is 8am this morning. I did not have enough time to get to know the bike because it is a jockey shift and hydraulic foot clutch. I notified S&S that I need a huge patch of asphalt to practice on before we part on the 12o mile journey and all Howard Kelly had to tell me was “We got you covered. Just come and have fun” so people please keep the positive waves, prayers, energies, Karma, starbucks add shots, and everything and anything that is good in your life going strong and moving forward, even if you are a little scared to ride this bike, like I am. Anyway please wish me luck and I will talk with you next month   peace/d

Fired up

June 9th, 2008

Today is the day the S&S bike gets fired up. I have only the throttle cable and oil lines to run and then its off for the maiden voyage. They are scheduled to pick up the bike on thursday to truck it to LaCrosse and I am flying out on the 24th to begin the ceremony. Please keep your fingers crossed and say a little prayer for the trip and the bike. We have to trek on a 120 mile journey once the event is under way on the newly built bikes and I sincerely wish every builder a trouble free trip. See you all soon and again thank you for your kind thoughts   peace to you /d

and into the stretch

May 21st, 2008

All the pieces are back for the S&S bike and the final assembly begins today. Please keep rooting for me, it has and will continue to be an uphill climb. peace/d

Happy mommy’s day

May 11th, 2008

What a stroke of genius, or sort of, I am finishing the final details of the bike today! I will begin pulling the bike a part tonight to get ready for the paint shop on monday night and my artist will arrive on wednesday to commence the airbrushing on the murals. It will be a couple of all nighters but everything is coming together, which in it of itself is a miracle, considering all the obstacles I have had to overcome  peace /d

May 8th, 2008

The S&S bike will be heading off to the first series of finishes this saturday. I am trying some new experimental approach with some new paints and ideas I hope will work out. Oh hell they will work out period! All the one-off parts are turning out quite nicely and I am beginning to feel the long nights and early mornings on myself. Yeah for starbucks and of course my lovely wife who always seems to come up with the right things to say and get me going again. I am really excited about this whole chapter in my life and to be honest with you all a bit scared. Well back to the shop, I’ve got some last minute welding to tend to…peace/d
